Ending the year with David Bowie and one of my favorite hometown tales. In August, former president Donald Trump and former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani joined a long list of people immortalized in mugshots. And they were glorious. The expressions were fascinating and reminded me of one of my favorite mugshots: David Bowie\'s. Bowie\'s arrest happened in my hometown of Rochester, New York. On...

Three out of five. The reasons vary, but here a...

Remember Norman Lear and his impact on American television All in the Family is the crown jewel of Norman Lear\'s television career. The TV legend died last week.

Only he won\'t pitch next year because he\'s injured. Ohtani had T...
